It might. I will do some more searching today if I get the time. It is a full 
day though.

I like to know what is. But somehow all these different treatments for things 
which are creations of someone's intellect kind of muddy the "moral" 
arguments that "intellectual property" proponents tend to put forth.

Please note, when I speak of "intellectual property" proponents, I do not 
speak of those who support copyrights, patents, trademarks, and the like. I 
speak of those who push they idea that these things are property and should 
fall in line with traditional property law. I don't buy that line.

Going back to the above:

I like to know what is.
I like to dischuss what should be. (This is tough.)
I like to discuss how we get from what is to what should be. (This is tougher 
still.)

all the best,

drew
